MAS 9 on OpenShift Resource Library overview
The MAS 9 on OpenShift Resource Library is a free, publicly accessible technical reference for deploying IBM Maximo Application Suite 9 on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform with NetApp Trident as the persistent storage provider.
No account is required. The library is available to anyone at Resources → MAS 9 on OpenShift.
The library contains four interlinked documents:
• Deployment Reference — architecture overview, version matrix, node sizing, storage classes, environment variants, and the full phased installation sequence. (~40 min read)
• Pre-Deployment Checklist — 120+ interactive checkboxes across eight phases mirroring the install sequence. Work through each phase before proceeding to the next.
• Trident Configuration Reference — copy-paste YAML for every resource needed: operator subscription, TridentOrchestrator, NAS/SAN/NVMe backends, StorageClasses, VolumeSnapshotClass, and smoke tests.
• Interactive Sizing Calculator — enter your app mix, user count, and IoPoints to get live cluster sizing, storage requirements through Year 3, and an environment-specific bill of materials with pricing estimates.
Who it's for:
• Platform engineers standing up the underlying OpenShift cluster
• Storage administrators configuring ONTAP and the Trident CSI provider
• MAS application owners coordinating application-layer deployment
• Solution architects validating sizing and architecture during pre-sales or design
